Compare heating systems and different heat sources. See which one provides the cheapest solution for your case.
Oil boilers, gas boilers, heat pumps, wood, pellets, electricity. Compare costs of heating using different heating sources/generators.
Estimate yearly cost of heating when replacing existing heating generator (boiler) with a new one.
Deciding on replacing a heating generator (boiler)? Trying to figure out the solution with the lowest operating (yearly) cost? Or just wondering which heating generator currently offers the lowest cost of heating a building? This application might help.
Heating Cost is an application that helps a consumer or a professional determine operating costs for different heating sources when replacing the existing heating generator. Calculation is based on current energy source consumption.
Features:
- Easy to use;
- As little numeric input as possible;
- Different heating generators compared directly from the same view (fast);
- Customizable prices and currency (manual input);
- Expert mode allows to compare two heating generators with more control over efficiencies;
Note:
- Metric units only.
Results include energy (heat) consumption and yearly cost of heating for different energy sources and heating generators.
Heat sources / generators covered:
- heating oil (boilers with or without condensation),
- natural gas (boilers with or without condensation),
- LPG (boilers with or without condensation),
- firewood,
- wood chips,
- pellets,
- electricity,
- heat pumps.
Note:
- Works only for existing heating generator replacement. Calculation is based on current system consumption.
The application does not contain ads. It also doesn't collect any personal or device information. No data connection is required for the app to work. No account is needed, works entirely on the device.

What's New in Heating Cost
2.5
November 2, 2022
Refreshed for newer OS versions.
Please update prices in your app to best reflect the new energy market situation. Thank you.
This is only fuel comparison software, it’s not a utility for working out or logging your fuel costs per year. It’s of absolutely no use to me. I have no idea why anyone would need this. I obviously misread or i wouldn’t have purchased. Waste of money.
Response from developer
Thank you for the review. The idea behind the app is quite clearly described in the description. It is based on a known, estimated or calculated consumption of a heating system. When replacing a boiler or other heat generator like a heat pump or when trying to decide which heat generator is best suited (i.e. offers the lowest operating cost) for a specific home, this app might help.
To be completely clear, the app does not offer any kind of logging fuel consumption or cost. It is a simple calculation app.
While the disappointment of the user is to be understood for purchasing something they do not need, the review is wrong and misplaced. The app description is truthful and does not suggest the app does what this user wanted.
